Although I can't think of a specific battle name (I think it was a siege of Pavia?) but Pepin the Short's defeat of Aistulph is more influential than given credit for. Without the mutually beneficial alliance between the Papacy and the Carolingians which started there I don't see how Christian Europe emerges in anything like the same way it did after the papacy became safe and a temporal power.
